The model uses exact complex arithmetic, unrestricted coefficients, specified Fourier roots, and unit-cost logarithmic-size indexing; scalar preparation and array organization are included. \end{abstract} \input{sections/introduction} \input{sections/network} \input{sections/local} \input{sections/synchronization} \input{sections/all-lengths} \appendix \input{sections/synthesis} \clearpage \begingroup \raggedright \bibliographystyle{plain} \bibliography{references} \endgroup \end{document}
